Disneyland Author Offers Instant Relief for Cars Land’s Long Lines

UPDATE: THIS PDF IS NO LONGER AVAILABLE BECAUSE THE NEW SECOND EDITION OF LOTS TO DO IN LINE: DISNEYLAND INCORPORATES THESE CARS LAND QUEUE GAMES

Free downloadable PDF is complement to Lots To Do In Line: Disneyland

(Orange County, California – August 2012) Meredith Lyn Pierce, author of “Lots To Do In Line: Disneyland,” has released a free downloadable PDF to help parents and others cope with the mega-lines created by the popularity of the new Cars Land attractions at Disney California Adventure Park.

Cars Land, a 12-acre addition to the Disneyland Resort’s No. 2 Anaheim, California theme park, opened on June 15 and has been phenomenally popular—as its long lines attest. “The Radiator Springs Racers ride alone has created waits as long as three hours,” notes Pierce, who waited that long herself. “Clearly something had to be done.”

Applying the same format she uses in her book, which was published before Cars Land opened, Pierce has created scavenger hunts and “I spy”-style activities to keep visitors happily occupied as they inch slowly to the front of the line. The games focus your attention on the many special details you might otherwise miss.

Using the visuals Disney Imagineers and designers have packed into the queue areas, Pierce has guests hunting for things to spot all the way up to the loading docks. You can compete for points with family and friends to add to the fun. Or simply look and enjoy.

You don’t have to be an expert in Disney history or trivia either. Since playing requires no prior knowledge, adults and kids start on an equal footing.

“I want to get this PDF into the hands of fans quickly, well before the book’s second edition appears,” Pierce says. “I can empathize with what people are going through in Cars Land right now because I was inspired to create Lots To Do In Line: Disneyland a year or so ago when I watched my daughter turn from a delightful and delighted little girl into a crabby kid every time we got into a lengthy ride line.”

Lots To Do In Line: Disneyland and Pierce’s Cars Land supplement to it are published by The Intrepid Traveler.
